Review summary

Ok. We hit bad weather. This review has NOTHING to do with that as it did not impact our trip other than prolonging it by a few hours. This ship is not only small, but old and in serious need of updating and dry dock. Decor, rooms, lounge, dining areas, and rec areas are literally falling apart in areas. Paint peeling, screws loose, tiles creaking etc. the two pools are tiny and the water slides were closed for 4 out of our 7 days. I watched a little girl pull an electrical plug right out of the hot tub. The arcade has like 4 games and an air hockey table. The mini golf course had so many loose bricks and torn carpets it was almost unplayable. The buffet had the exact same menu all 7 days. The soft serve ice cream was almost always liquidy or not working at all. The nail in the coffin was that after we hit the “bomb cyclone” (again...no impact on score) carnival CHARGED us for Dramamine for my daughters. Every other cruise I’ve ever been on supplies it free without question. I would have left only a 1 star, except my daughters had a blast. If this cruise was cheaper to reflect the age and quality of the ship I wouldn’t have minded. But carnival certainly wasn’t giving it away. I did not receive anywhere near what I expected.
